The installation structure of the molding

Abstract

The present invention provides installation construction of a molding, which is simple and reliable in assembling and low in cost, between a windscreen and a vehicle neck upper cover plate decoration member. An upper side wall portion and a lower side wall portion of the molding extend in parallel along the width direction of the vehicle. An inner wall portion is arranged between the upper side wall portion and the lower side wall portion, and extends, in parallel with the upper side wall portion and the lower side wall portion, along the width direction of the vehicle. A first bottom portion connects an end portion of the upper side wall portion at the rear side of the vehicle and an end portion of the inner wall portion at the rear side of the vehicle together within the whole area of the upper side wall portion and the inner wall portion in the width direction of the vehicle. A second bottom portion connects an end portion of the lower side wall portion at the front side of the vehicle and an end portion of the inner wall portion at the front side of the vehicle together within the whole area of the lower side wall portion and the inner wall portion in the width direction of the vehicle. The upper side wall portion is provided with a fastening portion fastened with the vehicle neck upper cover plate decoration member, and the vehicle neck upper cover plate decoration member is provided with a fastened portion. The first bottom portion is provided with a rear side lip portion abutted against the windscreen.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an installation structure of a molding, which is used to fix a windshield and a decorative member of a vehicle neck upper cover. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in order to install the windshield glass and the cowl top cover decoration member, a structure in which a claw hooked on the windshield glass is provided on the cowl top cover decoration member is known. Such claws are provided at predetermined intervals in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, a slider is required in the mold structure used when the cowl top cover trim member is molded, which raises the cost. In addition, there is a problem in that the portion between the claws and the claws of the decorative member of the neck top cover may be thermally deformed to produce wrinkles, resulting in deterioration of the appearance (Japanese: 见切り) of the joint. [0003] In order to solve such a problem, a structure has been proposed in which the upper edge of the...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Such claws are provided at predetermined intervals in the width direction of the vehicle, therefore, sliders are required in the structure of the mold used for molding the cowl top trim member, and there is a problem of cost increase.

In addition, there is a problem that sometimes the cowl top decorative member is thermally deformed between the claws and creases are generated, resulting in poor appearance (Japanese: 见切り) of the junction.

However, in the mounting structures of the moldings of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, it is difficult to fix and mount each component, and there is a problem of poor operability.

If the molding is not installed properly so that the windshield and cowl top trim components are not securely fastened, the molding will be thermally deformed resulting in poor appearance

Moreover, the seal is not sufficient, and it is necessary to install a water receiving member (Japanese: water receiving member) to prevent water from overflowing to the external air inlet and the installation part of the wiper linkage mechanism, thereby increasing the number of parts and increasing the cost. question

[0007] In addition, in the installation structure of the molding in Patent Document 1, the fixing of the molding depends on the double-sided tape. If the double-sided tape cannot be reliably bonded, due to the installation of the cowl ventilation panel (the cowl upper cover decorative member) If the direction is the same as the falling direction, it may easily fall off and the installation work may become difficult

In addition, in the mounting structure of the molding in Patent Document 2, since the molding is fixed to the side of the vehicle side panel, it is difficult to follow the deviation in the shape of the windshield and the cowl louver, and there is a problem that it is difficult to maintain the appearance quality.
